We hope that when you tune into a Mushroom FM show, it all sounds effortless. The reality is though that committing to a show on Mushroom FM is a commitment of more than just the hours that the show airs. The fun guys often think of themes and put music together based on them. There may be features that require some research, and often, we’re looking for things to say in our voice breaks that keep you interested. In short, it’s a bigger commitment than you may realise and I’m grateful to everyone who volunteers their time for Mushroom FM.

Bring it on!
I’m going to be in such a good mood, too.
New Zealand gets an extra hours sleep this week, since we finally go back to standard time.
So I’ll have extra energy, which means the possibility of more crazy music, or perhaps I’ll attempt to do headstands, while broadcasting.
I have no idea what’s going to happen, but I do know if you tune in from 11PM Eastern this Saturday, that’s 4am Sunday in the UK and 3PM Sunday afternoon here in New Zealand, you won’t miss out on what may or may not happen.
You won’t miss out on this week’s triple threat.

If you're in Europe, and yes for the moment at least we can include the UK in that group, then you'll be pleased to know that with the clocks going forward in that part of the world, the normal relationship with Eastern US time is restored, so the jolly old Mosen Explosion is back when you usually expect it to start.

If you're in New Zealand, well, we're still in this crazy transitional period when it starts at 7 AM. I dunno, all this scary messing with time.

Hipety hop! It’s the Easter Bonair Saturday 6:00 – 8:00 p.m. EST on mushroomfm.com and in all your fav music apps. We will be featuring a lot of music by sir Elton John, who turned 69 on March 25, plus anything you would like to request. There will be a “Food for Thought” that doesn’t involve chocolate or rabbit, and we will banter about all kinds of things. So put on your bunny slippers and tune in. If you’d like to get in touch with the show, email bonnieatmushroomfm.com or tweet @bonniemosen.

Please join me this Saturday from 11pm Eastern, that’s 4am Sunday in the UK and 4PM Easter Sunday here in New Zealand.
No triple threat or Live and loud segment this week.
Instead, we’ll be playing the entire Jesus Christ Superstar soundtrack.
Either side of this, there will be plenty of good music, and of course your requests.

Hope you can make it.

What can we possibly do when Brian Dalton is doing other things in Dublin town, and can't welcome us to the weekend, eh? How are we supposed to carry on?

Well, the Snowman and I have been doing this radio gig, on and off the Internet, for a long time now, and we've always talked about getting on the air together and seeing what happens. Now, your luck has run out, because we're gonna do it. We're really, really, gonna do it.

Are you stuck for things to do?
Are you having a few mineral waters, and want to keep the evening going?
Perhaps you’re outside enjoying the sun, and want some music to keep you company.
Or maybe, just maybe you want to hear my voice? Well, perhaps not that one...
If you answered yes to any or all of those, tune in tonight from 11pm Eastern, as the Shed doors open up for another week.
If you’re listening from new Zealand, please note, the start time is 4pm because of the time change in North America last week.

If you're happy and you know it, let's explode! Because 20 March 2016 has been decreed the International day of Happiness. I'm not making this soup up!

So we're exploding with four fun-filled happy hours on the happy little 'shroom. Are you happy? I'm happy to tell you that we'll be featuring songs this week that make you happy, so I hope this news makes you happy.

It’s a birthday surprise on Bonair—Saturday 6:00 – 8:00 P.m. EST on mushroomfm.com and in all your fav music apps. No, it’s not my birthday, that’s not for a few more months. No it’s not Jonathan’s birthday, that’s next month. To find out whose birthday it is you’ll just have to bring some birthday cake and a glass of virtual champagne and tune in.
